We study existence and Lorentz regularity of distributional solutions to elliptic equations with either a convection or a drift first order term. The presence of such a term makes the problem not coercive. The main tools are pointwise…

For every prime power p^n with p = 2 or 3 and n > 1 we give an example of an elliptic curve over Q containing a rational point which is locally divisible by p^n but is not divisible by p^n. For these same prime powers we construct examples…

We give a simple proof of the well-known divisibility by 2 condition for rational points on elliptic curves with rational 2-torsion. As an application of the explicit division by $2^n$ formulas obtained in Sec.2, we construct versal…

We obtain an explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients of the elliptic modular polynomials $\Phi_N$ for any $N\geq1$. These polynomials vanish at pairs of $j$-invariants of elliptic curves linked by cyclic isogenies of degree…

In recent years, the question of whether the ranks of elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ are unbounded has garnered much attention. One can create refined versions of this question by restricting one's attention to elliptic curves…

Let $P$ be a non-torsion point on an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ and consider the sequence $\{B_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of the denominators of $x(nP)$. We prove that every term of the sequence of the $B_n$ has a primitive…

Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve, let $P\in E(\mathbb Q)$ be non-torsion, and let $(D_n)$ be the associated elliptic divisibility sequence. We study when a product \[ \prod_{i=1}^k D_{n_i} \] can be a $\rho$-th power, where $\rho$ is…
